Chapter 125 Go Eat, Go Live
Ah...
Uh...
Twitching lips, dry and hoarse throat, dull and lifeless face.
Looking at the rising flames in the distance.
The people of Qingniu Town seemed to have their throats burned.
No clear sound could be made, only pure sobbing and pain.
The eyes were full of despair.
The lower class people are the most able to endure hardships, and a miserable life often accompanies them throughout their lives. Even if they are exiled to the border and live next to dangerous demons, people don’t feel anything.
It’s just that the miserable life becomes a little more miserable.
The people of Qingniu Town did not collapse when they were exiled to the border by Dagan.
The people of Qingniu Town did not collapse when they lived next to terrible demons.
They are like weeds.
Tenaciously rooted in the border, doing their best to survive.
However, people are not cold and ruthless machines, so how can they endure hardships without collapse?
At this moment, at this place, the people of Qingniu Town finally couldn't bear it anymore. Looking at the town burning in the flames, they shed tears of despair and helplessness.
"Brother Xu, my home is gone..."
"My home is gone..."
The dark-skinned man who always smiled innocently in the past.
Carrying his elderly mother on his back, he cried like never before, crying in pain and hoarse.
That was where he had lived since he was a child.
It was also the precious place he regarded as beautiful.
Now it's gone, everything is gone.
Aniu cried loudly, crying like a child, so helpless and sad.
"Get up, Aniu."
Xu Xi stepped forward, helped the man to steady the old man, then patted his shoulder, looked into the blank eyes, and said softly:
"Let's go."
"Brother Xu, where are we going?"
"To eat, to live."
The short words have great appeal.
People who have lost everything, have to keep moving forward.
They didn't know their ideals or life, but they knew the importance of "eating" and were deeply attracted by it.
Involuntarily.
Following the back figure in the wind and snow.
Wu Yingxue stared at the scene for a long time, until the team almost disappeared in the wind and snow, then she woke up belatedly and quickly followed.
"Sir, wait for me!"
...
[Qingniu Town disappeared]
[Physically, it was burned to ashes by a group of ferocious fire crows, leaving nothing behind]
[You looked at the burning scene of Qingniu Town and the distraught people, and decided to lead everyone to leave the winter border together]
[You left]
[The people of Qingniu Town followed you and left]
[Wu Yingxue once curiously asked you why the people listened to you so much, and you denied this statement]
[Eating and living are instincts that everyone desires. All you did was to guide people in this direction, nothing more]
[Demons were rampant on the winter border, and you encountered them many times. Fortunately, your strength was amazing and you were able to successfully stop them every time]
[You decided to lead people along the path provided by Wu Yingxue and enter the Dagan Thirteen The hinterland of the state]
[This is the only way you can think of to keep more people alive]
[The journey to the exit is not long, but that is only for you and the girl. For the people of Qingniu Town, this journey with wind and snow is really too long]
[You have to spend more time, be vigilant and pay attention to prevent people from getting lost on the road]
[On the way]
[You encounter other towns that are also rooted in the border line]
[Compared with Qingniu Town, this town is more tragic, with broken limbs everywhere, blood sprayed and dyed the snowy road red, and collapsed and crooked building ruins smashed through everything]
[The demons that attacked here have left, leaving only the empty and silent town]
[You entered the town to search, but did not find any usable supplies, but you found a few people who were lucky enough to escape from the demons]
Standing in front of you.
Can it really be considered a human?
Tattered clothes, messy hair, and empty eyes like broken ones.
"..."
No matter how you call, there will be no response.
Obviously, the blow suffered by these people is even greater than that of the people in Qingniu Town.
"Yingxue, bring a piece of dried meat."
The girl quickly handed over a piece of dried meat.
It was made of demon meat.
Xu Xi tore it apart little by little with his fingers, and then wrapped it with Gangqi and Qi and blood, heated and softened it, and stuffed it into the mouths of the surviving people one by one.
Feeling the entrance of the food, they finally reacted and chewed mechanically.
"This world..."
"It really doesn't give people a way to survive."
Xu Xi sighed.
There are many demons in winter, which makes the number of demon meat surge, so there is no need to worry about food for the time being.
Therefore, Xu Xi can generously give food to the survivors.
But more.
He has no choice.
Xu Xi is just an innate warrior in the Guanli realm.
He can kill demons and "people", but he can't restore the collapsed town, let alone resurrect the dead.
"It's time to move on."
...
[You gave food to other surviving people]
[There are a lot of food reserves, which can even be said to be sufficient in the winter when demons are rampant]
[The real difficulty is never about food, but how to survive this cold winter]
[What surprised you is]
[Those people you gave food to finally stumbled up to you, their faces full of despair, but the sickles and iron forks in their hands were so conspicuous]
[They asked where you were going and what you were going to do in the end]
[Your answer was "stay alive"]
[You spoke frankly, stating that you might end up being an enemy of Da Gan, and the "adults" that everyone feared]
[Some people were shocked, calling you a rebellious rebel who would be beheaded by the adults in the court]
[Some people were confused, not understanding why being alive was related to Da Gan]
[Your answer was simple]
"The world is sick, and it's very sick."
"Dagan is sick, and you are sick too, so everyone can't survive."
"What I want to do is to cure this disease so that everyone can live."
In the wind.
In the blizzard.
Xu Xi said these words to the surviving people who were chasing him.
Some people seemed to understand, and some didn't understand at all.
What flashed in his eyes was confusion and chaos.
One or two people stayed where they were, choosing to stay in the ruined town.
More people joined Xu's team with sickles and forks in hand, without any complicated reasons, simply because they thought Xu's team could keep them alive.
